So I was asking about a comet or fu manchu earlier this week...well went to the LFS today and fell in luuuuve with a stunning little zebra moray eel that I purchased and will go pick up tomorrow. Never had an eel so I figured why not, so I came home did a WC to my newly cycled tank and proceded to do my best to "eel proof" the tank just to be safe. Now I know your thinking "zomg moray in a 56g tank wtf!!" but he he a lil guy (bout 12") and I think the tank will be just a dandy QT untill I can make space in my 48x24x30 140 which he should be fine in for quite some time.
I do have a question about diet, I was thinking NLS/nori stuffed shrimp, squid chunks and silver sides would make up the bulk of his diet with the occasional live critter treat. Would this be a proper diet? is there anything specific that I should feed him? also how often should a eel be fed? are they any diffrent really than fish as far as feeding?
